I just ordered these. Since retiring, 2 years ago, I have taken up cross stitching again. I'm thinking they will come in handy for that plus, I will have a gift for the retired ladies Christmas luncheon/gift exchange this year.

I have a set I purchased last year and love it. I typically use it for reading in low light areas but have also used it as a flash light in a pinch. My daughter took the 2nd pair.

@Tuffcookie These seem like such a great idea. Dumb ? even though they say 3.3 oz weight is that too heavy for around one's neck?

I can imagine how fast you'd burn through batteries while reading a book, doing a hand sewing project, or doing any long-term activity. Each neck piece will require four AA batteries. Why in the world didn't they make this thing rechargable? I suppose it would have been a little more expensive.

That company does make the rechargeable kind but they cost twice as much. The batteries are not removable so when the batteries stop recharging then you throw the whole thing away. The rechargeable kind wouldn't require your to spend your money on batteries but when the juice runs out then you need to wait and recharge again. Sometimes there's no place to recharge. It would be nice to have a removable rechargeable battery pack on hand in that case. All rechargeable batteries need replacing a some point.

I could really use something like this, but four AA batteries sounds heavy. Does anyone have this exact set or is it different?

I purchased these last October as item #V39406. I love them! Since having cataract surgery I found that I needed a bright light for close work/reading. With this gadget I see perfectly without glasses. They use two batteries per set (one for each light). They do use up batteries quickly but I don't mind since they are perfect for my needs. I do not find them heavy around the neck.

Thanks for the review...I guess it was t clear that they only use 2 batteries in each set...that would not be too heavy. I guess I will order the ...one for me, and one for DH

@Kachina624 each neck light requires 2 AA batteries.
